Today my best friend confessed that he loves me. That he thinks he is in love iwth me and asked me to give him a chance to make me happy.

I have a boyfreind. We have been going out for 1 year and 2 months. we have shared many moments.. I was his first time.. and we are long distance.. (asia and europe) my best freiind knows this...

My best friend told me to give him a chance,that i should take the risk..

To be honest, i know that if i am even considering this i should consider my relationship with bf, but i cant bare the thought of leaving him and giving up all we had and might have...

what should i do????

Once, I fell in love with a girl that had a boyfriend, and I told her how I felt about her even though I knew she had a boyfriend. She said things were too complicated and that she would have to think about it. She broke up with her bf and stopped talking to me for about three months. After vacations, we coincided at a party and she told me that when I told her how I felt it made her realize that she never felt that way towards her boyfriend so she left him.

We have been together for almost two years now. So what I mean is that if you are considering this, it is probably because there is something that you think is missing in the relationship and you should seek it, and fix it before you make any drastic decisions.

Follow your heart is the most cliches idea ever. Everyone know that it is not that simple.

To beging with, as you said, you guys have shared moments together. Moments that to you are extermely important, serious and unique. You have spent one year with this guy. And it is obvious from your statement that you were planning on continuing for longer with him.. until today. Your best friend confessed and know your head is a mess because you are realising that the distance may be to big, and that he is very convenient. Which means that you and your BF have been having issues lately.

You are both young and in college and doing long distance. (A BIG ONE!!) You have to settle your head down and think is this is actually what you want or not. And not only your best freind, but the long distance. Is long distance really for you? can you honestly spend a long time without seeing each other and still feel those butterflies that you once felt?

you have to also take in mind the advantages and disadvantages of being in this type of relationship.

Sometimes, we make ourselve sbelive that we are able to because we make ourselves see a future in it, as to pretend and deceive ourselves that this will work.

Hope I helped.

Love, Holly xx

Hi, I think you should consider if comfortable is what you want, because that is what it seems to me. if you are ok living an "ok" relationship than great, if not then consider giving your best friend a shot..

How do you feel about your best friend? How do you feel about your boyfriend? Follow your heart. If you want to be with your best friend don't worry about what you might have in the future with your boyfriend, dump your boyfriend and get together with your best friend. However if you want to stay with your boyfriend don't feel pressured by your boyfriend to give your best friend a chance.
